Forêt Classée et Réserve Partielle de faune de l

Description

It is located on the border with the Republic of Ivory Coast, around the confluence of the Comoé and Léraba rivers. The Comoé Léraba Forest and Partial Wildlife Reserve (FCRPF/CL) falls into the category of wildlife protection areas (WPA) in Burkina Faso. As such, its main vocation is the conservation and propagation of wildlife, as well as the development of its habitat. Moreover, since October 2009, the FCRPF/CL officially enjoys the status of Wetland of International Importance recognized by the Ramsar Convention. This gives it an additional vocation that requires special conservation provisions. Studies conducted on the diversity of fauna in 1997 by GEPRENAF made it possible to identify 123 species of mammals, 62 species of reptiles and 464 species of birds in the Comoé-Léraba Reserve.
